JW Marriott Cannes
Cannes, France
Built on the site of the former Palais des Festivals, JW Marriott draws on Cannes’ film history with large black-and-white star portraits and polished contemporary rooms. The rooftop pool and terrace are the main reason to linger upstairs, while Scalini brings Italian dining to the hotel. Palais Stéphanie Beach provides a separate seaside option. Its Croisette location suits a visit split between beach time, shopping and evenings in the centre.
